Avoid submerging Classic 3’s battery end in water.
Classic 3’s battery performance may be adversely
affected by cold weather. In temperatures below
32ºF/0ºC carry the unit close to your body or warm up
batteries before use. If batteries are too cold, Classic 3’s
LED indicator may give low battery signal. Warm up
batteries and treat again.
Make sure to wipe dry after each use.
When not in use, Classic 3 should be kept in a safe
place that is clean and dry. It should not be exposed
to temperatures above 120°F/49°C or below -4°F/-20°C.
Also, when storing for long periods of time, remove
batteries to keep them from inadvertantly draining.
To clean Classic 3, wash with a soft cloth and a mild
soap solution. Rinse soap from device and dry with
a clean, soft cloth.
If Classic 3’s bulb is cracked, chipped or damaged,
don’t use it. Return it to the store or contact SteriPEN
for repair. Email us at
or call
888-826-6234 (207-374-4506). Do not try to fix it
yourself.
Classic 3 runs on disposable
alkaline
batteries,
lithium
batteries, or
rechargeable nickel metal hydride
(NiMH) AA batteries with a 2300mAh capacity.
For best results, always use quality, name brand
batteries, like Energizer® or Sanyo Eneloop®.
A flashing or steady red indicator means treatment was
unsuccessful. See “Classic 3 LED Indicator Guide.”
Be sure to wipe bottle threads dry before drinking.
